Tropical Carrot Cake Oatmeal

1. Bring coconut milk and water to a boil in a medium sauce pan. Add steel cut oats and carrots. Lower heat to maintain a simmer and cook oat mixture uncovered for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. When oats have thickened up and most of the liquid is absorbed, add pineapple, brown sugar, pecans, shredded coconut, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Stir to combine and remove from heat. Dig in!

Note: If you want to ensure this recipe is gluten free or vegan, be sure to read labels carefully and choose certified gluten-free steel-cut oats and organic brown sugar.
